Customer Reviews

Misleading marketing.

This is an incredibly small book with a very short, SHORT story and was not worth what it cost. It was a freebie for me n I feel like that was a rip off.

Meh

Incredibly short read, just okay.

Love it

Love it!

Intriguing mystery

Interesting short read

Wish there was a 2nd!

This was an awesome book, by one of my favorite authors. But the book is SO small!!! I was so sad it ended!

Different than her others

Gillian Flynn is one of my favorite authors- this is unlike any of her other books. A quick fun read!

Loved It!

Gillian Flynn does not disappoint with her twist and turns, I had to read it straight through!

Awful!!!

This was one of the biggest disappointments ever! After all her other stellar titles this was a major letdown. Also would have liked to be informed that this was less than 100 pages. Super small, super short. Don't waste your time or money.

This is a short story

This is a short story and not the greatest I’ve ever read. Not worth paying the price for an actual novel. Obviously Flynn’s skills are improving. This was a disappointment though.

One of my favorites!

Gillian Flynns books are highly recommended. This is a great book that will definitely stick to you!
